PC/Mac/Linux Dead Cells (Motion Twin)

Patch notes;

  • The Custom Games: You can now make some run with custom parameters!
    Lock / Unlock items, gameplay modifiers, timer setting, etc... !
  • Community suggestion All the cooldown reduction mechanic has been redone from scratch. The mutations that granted free CD reduction (for active skills and grenades) were removed. 4 new mutations were added to give you new ways to reduce you skill cooldowns: by killing enemies in close combat, by killing at distance, by parrying and by dealing critical hits.

    For example, one of these mutations reduces all your ongoing skills cooldowns by 2.5 sec for each successful shield parry, and this value even increases based on your Survival stat.

    The one that reduces CD for each critical hit is a new colorless mutationthat will scale on your highest stat.
  • Community suggestion Most mutations have been reworked & balanced in order to make some of them more useful. See other notes for more details.
  • Community suggestion Bosses no longer drop Legendary items, but 1 weapon and 1 active skill instead. Legendaries are now only available as random world loots (legendary drops were not meant to be this frequent and thus, always surpass other loots), and from new challenge doors (see below)
  • Community suggestion You can upgrade the Forge with the Collector and unlock the ability to upgrade an item quality more than once.
  • Community suggestion The "mob auto-scaling" mechanic has been removed completely. All the levels now a fixed "difficulty" that won't adapt to you anymore, so you'll have to be really careful to be properly equipped before getting to late levels, especially in 3 & 4-cells modes (there's no reason now for not picking any scroll, and cursed chest scrolls are "mandatory" in 4-cells mode).
  • Community suggestion Balanced the way money profits/costs scale on higher difficulty settings. Costs now scale faster than profits. Also, Recycling profits are no longer based on the the buying cost of the item, but on its reselling value, which scales slower (TLDR; recycling no longer breaks the whole economy).
  • Most mobs in 4-cells difficulty are now more aggressive: they can teleport, they have a better detection range and they cannot be distracted by deployed traps.
  • Community suggestion Timed doors have all been moved to transition levels. They now offer a multi-purpose reward instead of Scrolls. You can now choose 1 reward for free among 3 (picked among weapons, skills and talismans). Their quality level (+/++/S) is guaranteed, based on the current difficulty setting.
  • Community suggestion New challenge doors in transition levels will require you to kill X enemies without getting hit once. Their rewards are equivalent to Timed Doors.
  • New challenge doors after bosses will grant Legendary rewards if you kill a Boss without getting hit once.
  • Healing items (Tonic) & mutations (Necromancy, What doesn't kill me) now heal a percentage of your max life, and this percentage scales with your stats.
  • Elites enemies have been reworked. All of them will now have an additional random elite skill in addition of all their normal skills. Expect many different things, from lightning walls, clones or shield pylons.
  • Community suggestion Homunculus skill has been vastly updated: you can now grab your own turrets, cancel a grab, it deals more damage, breaks invisibility etc.
  • Community suggestion Killing a mob while the homunculus is stuck on it no longer triggers the homunculus skill cooldown, allowing you to use constantly, as long as your target dies. If you recall it before the enemy death, it will trigger the penalty cooldown.
  • New secret holes can now spawn below your feet. Pay attention to hidden runes in the ground and use your stomp move to break them!
  • The Achievements are now visible ingame!

Custom mode & Balancing
Important features
  • Community suggestion A vast number of items have been updated to make them more useful or powerful. The idea here was to make many "auto-recycle" items much more interesting.
  • New custom game mode released! You can now customize your runs the way you want, like unlocking/relocking items, enabling special gameplay adjustments, changing rules etc. You are under control, have fun :)
  • Community suggestion Homunculus skill has been vastly improved: you can now grab your own turrets, cancel a grab, it deals more damage, breaks invisibility etc.
  • Community suggestion Most mutations have been reworked & balanced in order to make some of them more useful. See other notes for more details.
  • Community suggestion The "mob auto-scaling" mechanic has been removed completely. All the levels now have a fixed "difficulty" that won't adapt to you in weird ways anymore. This affects the game in the following ways:

    - in 0-cell mode: things will be a little bit easier (just a little bit)
    - in 1 & 2-cells modes: difficulty is roughly the same as before
    - in 3 & 4-cells modes: you'll have to be really careful to be properly equipped before getting to late levels (picking cursed chests scrolls is highly recommended)
  • Community suggestion All the cooldown reduction mechanic has been redone from scratch. The mutations that granted free CD reduction (for active skills and grenades) were removed. They were replaced by 4 new mutations to give you new active ways to reduce your skill cooldowns: by killing enemies in close combat, by killing at distance, by parrying and by dealing critical hits.

    For example, one of these mutations reduces all your ongoing skills cooldowns by 2.5 sec for each successful shield parry, and this time value even increases based on your Survival stat.

    The one that reduces CD for each critical hit is a new colorless mutationthat will scale on your highest stat.
  • Community suggestion Bosses no longer drop Legendary items, but 1 weapon and 1 active skill instead. Legendaries are now "world drop", so you may encounter them when killing mobs or on the new "legendary altars". The level generator has also been adjusted to ensure you find a "Legendary Altar" in most of your runs. You may also get legendaries as rewards of advanced challenges, like beating a boss without getting hit.
  • Community suggestion Damage Reduction has been heavily reworked. Most items no longer grant DR anymore, their power has been increased as a compensation. Damage Reduction is not a mandatory strategy anymore and the whole game difficulty has been rebalanced accordingly.
  • Community suggestion You can upgrade the Forge with the Collector and unlock the ability to upgrade an item quality more than once.
  • Community suggestion Balanced the way money profits/costs scale on higher difficulty settings. Costs now scale faster than profits. Also, Recycling profits are no longer based on the the buying cost of the item, but on its reselling value, which scales slower (TLDR; recycling no longer breaks the whole economy).
  • New secret holes can now spawn below your feet. Pay attention to hidden runes in the ground and use your stomp move to break them!
  • Most mobs in 4-cells difficulty are now more aggressive: they can teleport, they have a better detection range and they cannot be distracted by deployed traps.
  • Community suggestion New challenge doors in transition levels will require you to kill X enemies without getting hit in a row. Their rewards are equivalent to Timed Doors. Note you can get hit before or after a serie of X kills, this won't invalidate this challenge.
  • New challenge doors after bosses will grant Legendary items if you kill a Boss without getting hit once.
  • Community suggestion Timed doors have all been moved to transition levels. They now offer a multi-purpose reward instead of Scrolls. You can now choose 1 reward for free among 3 (picked among weapons, skills and talismans). Their quality level (+/++/S) is guaranteed, based on the current difficulty setting.
  • Healing items (Tonic) & mutations (Necromancy, What doesn't kill me) now heal a percentage of your max life, and this percentage scales with your stats.
  • Elites enemies have been reworked. All of them will now have an additional random elite skill in addition of all their normal skills. Expect many different things, from lightning walls, clones or shield pylons.
  • Community suggestion Killing a mob while the homunculus is stuck on it no longer triggers the homunculus skill cooldown, allowing you to use constantly, as long as your target dies. If you recall it before the enemy death, it will trigger the penalty cooldown.
  • The Achievements are now visible ingame!
  • You may now find Legendary Altars in some levels. They grant you a legendary item but you'll have to kill all the nearby enemies first. Version 1.1.2
  • Fighter Endurance is a new mutation that increases your HP by a percentage which scales with your Brutality. Version 1.1.3
  • Upgrading items in Forge now costs a fixed flat price that doesn't scale with difficulty. Upgrading "from ++ to S" for example should now be more affordable in BC3 & BC4. Version 1.1.3
  • The Homunculus will now retract if it touches traps like Spikes. Version 1.1.3
  • The 5th money blueprint is now available ingame. Version 1.1.3
  • Community suggestion The way the player's HP scales has been vastly rebalanced for Brutality and Tactic. You should have much more HP at higher levels, preventing from being one-shot (if your build is balanced).
    Brutality used to give extra HP until level 14, it now caps at level 45 (30 for Tactic). Version 1.1.6
  • Community suggestion Increased HP given for each scroll you pick. The new values are +60% HP for Brutality, +50% HP for Tactic and +70% HP for Survival. Version 1.1.6

Nunca fui desde tipo de jogos mas já vou em quase 200hrs é pura e simplesmente genial e vale o preço mesmo sem deconto, recebi grátis com muita sorte como já tinha dito


Aqui fica a dica para quem começa a jogar agora, vão ao google e vejam as melhores armas e "tacticals" e desbloqueiam essas porque assim quando fizerem runs só vos aparecem na maioria das vezes as armas e tacticals que voces querem, desbloqueiem as runes, consegui matar o boss final sem duas runes, a spyder e a ram...

Este guia é bom mas há um melhor na steam, ja meto aqui

https://deadcells.gamepedia.com/Biomes

Caminho para as runes...

https://deadcells.gamepedia.com/Runes


Com um setup de um bom crossbow e Frost blast ou outra arma que faça freeze, com 2 tacticals que disparam à distancia todos boostados de tactical(roxo) scrolls é super facil acabar o jogo na dificuldade normal, e com sorte de apanharem aqueles dourados ou os dos cofres amaldiçoados ainda mais facil é se jogarem pelo seguro quando passarem de nivel com o update aparecem boas armas e tacticals.

Não esquecer a escolher a Mutação Ygdar Orus li ox, na primeira passagem de nivel nas outras já não está diponivel, pois dá a oportunindade de resuscitarem uma vez.

Agora como o jogo está diferente tenten acabar os niveis matando sem perder energia e recebem cells e armas ou tacticals na passagem de nivel...

Mesmo antes do update se fizessem isso era facil, eu é que não li os guias e fui na maluquice de desbloquear tudo o que aparecia, agora matar o boss final nas dificuldades a seguir é bem mais dificil.

Agora vou só jogar no segundo save onde não desbloqueio as armas e tacticals inuteis, granadas não desbloqueio uma...
 
Última edição:
Eu ainda tenho dificuldades em não levar dano, sinceramente... Mas tenho conseguido sempre fazer as portas de 8 minutos, portanto podia ser pior, são sempre 20 cells garantidas aí. De resto, acabei a chegar mais longe com uma build roxo main /vermelho off, com 2 traps de atirar à distância e eventualmente um sniper bow (altamente abusado), e sim, é claramente uma forma mais segura de se avançar. Cheguei à clock tower e matei o boss lá sem ter que gastar mais que uma poção. Estratégia super segura.
 
Eu já consigo chegar ao ultimo boss sem dificuldade, a dificuldade esta é em mata-lo.. ainda no outro dia mandei uma print ao miguel da minha build e nem 30 segundos consegui aguentar com o boss final :/
 
Nem sabia que havia thread desde magnífico jogo.

Comprei para a Switch e literalmente passei grande parte do Verão colado nisto. Mal a época de exames acabe, lá vou eu para o vício novamente.

Para se matar o boss é preciso calma não entrar em stress e tomar muita atençao qundo nos empurra para os pits saltar e fazer o roll no momento certo com boas "tactics" que fazem o resto do trabalho por ti.

O caminho que mais gosto de fazer é

Promenade of the condemend - Prison depths - Ossuary - que leva ao boss Concierge - Stilt village - Forgoten sepulcer (Este é dificil) - clock room boss fight - e os outors já não tens escolha.

Patch 1.1

https://dead-cells.com/patchnotes

Custom mode & Balancing
Important features
  • Community suggestion A vast number of items have been updated to make them more useful or powerful. The idea here was to make many "auto-recycle" items much more interesting.
  • New custom game mode released! You can now customize your runs the way you want, like unlocking/relocking items, enabling special gameplay adjustments, changing rules etc. You are under control, have fun :)
  • Community suggestion Homunculus skill has been vastly improved: you can now grab your own turrets, cancel a grab, it deals more damage, breaks invisibility etc.
  • Community suggestion Most mutations have been reworked & balanced in order to make some of them more useful. See other notes for more details.
  • Community suggestion The "mob auto-scaling" mechanic has been removed completely. All the levels now have a fixed "difficulty" that won't adapt to you in weird ways anymore. This affects the game in the following ways:

    - in 0-cell mode: things will be a little bit easier (just a little bit)
    - in 1 & 2-cells modes: difficulty is roughly the same as before
    - in 3 & 4-cells modes: you'll have to be really careful to be properly equipped before getting to late levels (picking cursed chests scrolls is highly recommended)
  • Community suggestion All the cooldown reduction mechanic has been redone from scratch. The mutations that granted free CD reduction (for active skills and grenades) were removed. They were replaced by 4 new mutations to give you new active ways to reduce your skill cooldowns: by killing enemies in close combat, by killing at distance, by parrying and by dealing critical hits.

    For example, one of these mutations reduces all your ongoing skills cooldowns by 2.5 sec for each successful shield parry, and this time value even increases based on your Survival stat.

    The one that reduces CD for each critical hit is a new colorless mutationthat will scale on your highest stat.
  • Community suggestion Bosses no longer drop Legendary items, but 1 weapon and 1 active skill instead. Legendaries are now "world drop", so you may encounter them when killing mobs or on the new "legendary altars". The level generator has also been adjusted to ensure you find a "Legendary Altar" in most of your runs. You may also get legendaries as rewards of advanced challenges, like beating a boss without getting hit.
  • Community suggestion Damage Reduction has been heavily reworked. Most items no longer grant DR anymore, their power has been increased as a compensation. Damage Reduction is not a mandatory strategy anymore and the whole game difficulty has been rebalanced accordingly.
  • Community suggestion You can upgrade the Forge with the Collector and unlock the ability to upgrade an item quality more than once.
  • Community suggestion Balanced the way money profits/costs scale on higher difficulty settings. Costs now scale faster than profits. Also, Recycling profits are no longer based on the the buying cost of the item, but on its reselling value, which scales slower (TLDR; recycling no longer breaks the whole economy).
  • New secret holes can now spawn below your feet. Pay attention to hidden runes in the ground and use your stomp move to break them!
  • Most mobs in 4-cells difficulty are now more aggressive: they can teleport, they have a better detection range and they cannot be distracted by deployed traps.
  • Community suggestion New challenge doors in transition levels will require you to kill X enemies without getting hit in a row. Their rewards are equivalent to Timed Doors. Note you can get hit before or after a serie of X kills, this won't invalidate this challenge.
  • New challenge doors after bosses will grant Legendary items if you kill a Boss without getting hit once.
  • Community suggestion Timed doors have all been moved to transition levels. They now offer a multi-purpose reward instead of Scrolls. You can now choose 1 reward for free among 3 (picked among weapons, skills and talismans). Their quality level (+/++/S) is guaranteed, based on the current difficulty setting.
  • Healing items (Tonic) & mutations (Necromancy, What doesn't kill me) now heal a percentage of your max life, and this percentage scales with your stats.
  • Elites enemies have been reworked. All of them will now have an additional random elite skill in addition of all their normal skills. Expect many different things, from lightning walls, clones or shield pylons.
  • Community suggestion Killing a mob while the homunculus is stuck on it no longer triggers the homunculus skill cooldown, allowing you to use constantly, as long as your target dies. If you recall it before the enemy death, it will trigger the penalty cooldown.
  • The Achievements are now visible ingame!
  • You may now find Legendary Altars in some levels. They grant you a legendary item but you'll have to kill all the nearby enemies first. Version 1.1.2
  • Fighter Endurance is a new mutation that increases your HP by a percentage which scales with your Brutality. Version 1.1.3
  • Upgrading items in Forge now costs a fixed flat price that doesn't scale with difficulty. Upgrading "from ++ to S" for example should now be more affordable in BC3 & BC4. Version 1.1.3
  • The Homunculus will now retract if it touches traps like Spikes. Version 1.1.3
  • The 5th money blueprint is now available ingame. Version 1.1.3
  • Community suggestion The way the player's HP scales has been vastly rebalanced for Brutality and Tactic. You should have much more HP at higher levels, preventing from being one-shot (if your build is balanced).
    Brutality used to give extra HP until level 14, it now caps at level 45 (30 for Tactic). Version 1.1.6
  • Community suggestion Increased HP given for each scroll you pick. The new values are +60% HP for Brutality, +50% HP for Tactic and +70% HP for Survival. Version 1.1.6
  • Community suggestion 3 shields are now Survival/Tactic: Punishment, Parry Shield and Knockback Shield. Version 1.1.6

  • Vampirism has been redesigned: it now causes bleeding to all nearby enemies and you get free healing when you kill them. It recharges when using your potion.

Hello everyone,

Hope you're doing well! As we told you a while ago, the team is working on the upcoming free DLC we promised. We're finally reaching the final phases before we ready to publish it. However, as always, we're looking to get as most feedback as we can from Dead Cells' players. And, well, since there is a lot of new content, we need your help now more than ever to tweak, hunt the bugs, and balance it.

The new content has been built to give more depth to Dead Cells' end game. Hence, one of the new biome and its boss won't be accessible before you beat the game a first time. A fifth boss cell is now available... I will let you deduce where to find the second boss and biome are hiding themselves!

We're also improving the end game by making the Dead Cells' experience in Boss Cells 1 to 5 more unique and interesting. New ennemies and new rewards (skins and weapons) are awaiting the braves ready to rise to the gigantic* challenge.

The patch notes are available here[dead-cells.com].

Let us know what you think in the comment down there, or, even better, on Reddit where we're going to open a specific thread dedicated to the discussion (pinned).

How do I get in?

To access the ALPHA follow these instructions:
Go to your Steam game library.
Right click on Dead Cells and click "properties".
Select the tab "Betas".
In the first dropdown box select "Alpha - Not for the faint hearted".
Click close and wait for the upload to finish downloading.
Start playing.

WARNING:
In this version of the game you will lose your save every time we push an update, which could be pretty often! This will not impact your old save files. You will be able to import the old ones in to this version, but not export them. This way you can play with everything you've already unlocked, without fear of frying your saves.

If you are still worried about losing you save then feel free to head over here: "steam\userdata\<ID>\588650\remote" and copy the files somewhere safe.

There is a special slot only for saves from this version that will appear.

We hope to read you soon!
The MT team
